Flowering Plants on the Lake

[pengu13]

So we headed out on the lake to day to get some walleye and pike when we came around the bend all we saw was a huge white mat of flowers. i have not seen the lake like this.
Just thought i would share.

[wow]

It looks like you can walk on it, awesome!

 

[pengu13]

Ya they are weeds, it kinda sucked because it kept rapping up our prop so we had to paddle through

I believe that's Water Buttercup (Ranunculus flabellaris). It's a pretty bad invasive in some areas of the world. Cool pics though.

It's pretty, but it doesn't look good for the fish.

I have to admit, I can understand how it can be an invasive flower/weed.. but common.. that is by far .. breath taking
Amazing pictures. Great Job


wonder if that would be something like duckweed..? if you were to add it to a planted tank, how would it do.. ?
